Background/Objectives: This study was conducted to verify the effects of quality of life and stress on the happiness of nurses in general hospitals. Methods/Statistical analysis: The participants were 173 general hospital nurses. Data were collected from November 1 to 15, 2018, and analyzed using SPSS 25.0 program. The significance level was set at .05. Findings: The results showed a significant difference in happiness (p<.05) depending on the general characteristics of age, marital status, number of beds of the hospital, number of nurses of the hospital, job satisfaction level, colleague relationship satisfaction level, employment status, and subjective health. Further, stress and happiness displayed a significant negative correlation (r = -.27, p<.001). Job satisfaction level and subjective health were identified as significant influencing factors on happiness. Improvements/Applications: The implementation of a happiness promotion program that considers the influencing factors is needed to promote the happiness of nurses in general hospitals.Keywords

Background/Objectives: This study aims to investigate the effects of clinical training stress and clinical training satisfaction on clinical competency during pediatric nursing training in nursing students.
Methods/Statistical Analysis: Ninety-one nursing students participated in this study, and data were collected from May 29 to November 10, 2017. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 22.0.
Findings: This study found that clinical competency had a significant negative correlation with clinical training stress (r = −.356, p < .001) and a significant positive correlation with clinical training satisfaction (r = .524, p < .001). Clinical training satisfaction (β = .439, p < .001) and conflict with pediatric patients, a component of clinical training stress (β = −.226, p = .019), were identified as factors having significant effects on clinical competency during pediatric nursing clinical training.
Improvements/Applications: It is important to plan clinical training while considering the factors affecting it to enhance nursing students’ clinical competency during pediatric nursing clinical training.
